I recently won an ebay auction that is going to complete a good many of my 7800 games. I'm so excited to receive the package, I know which boxes I'm getting but it looks like a lot of different instructions in there. I can't tell much of what's there so that will be like a bonus surprise. And, the price wasn't too bad considering a few of the boxes that's in there and I couldn't resist free shipping! Only about $1.50 per box and a bunch of free misc instructions. I need all of those boxes except three. Check it out:

eBay Auction -- Item Number: 150576770088

I'm going to get an updated picture up of my collection, especially after I get the package in the mail and make some room on my shelves...somehow. Thanks for checking out my upcoming upgrade.

Well damn, nice score!

You can make ends back on just a couple of the boxes alone..

Does anyone know what the boxes that say "V61" are from? Isn't that Video 61 which was a repair place or something?

Wow, great pick up!

Only if that lot included Ninja Golf. That game is sweet.

Wow, you can buy a lot of new games from them but quite expensive to build a 7800 collection that way. ebay has done me well with my 7800 carts and now some boxes too.

Thanks a lot for that link!

I'm still waiting on this one. Must be Media Mail.

I got it and the boxes are really nice, very impressed. I got some cool instructions too. I forget if I have a before pic of my boxes but this completes a good many of my games because every box I have, I have the game and manual for too.

They even had the warranty cards in them which was nice too because I didn't have enough of those for the true completion.

Here's a pic of my new 7800 library. I have some carts in boxes still and some empty boxes but most carts are in bags underneath. I am going to get them all out of the boxes for less stress on them and then have the full collection of carts. Gettin' there!
